Computer Technology and the Networked Organization

Introduction

In the current era of technology, the field of computer networking is one of the most leading and prominent fields. It is because of the reason that, computer networking allows the organizations and businesses to exchange their data within the organization, as well as out of the information. Therefore, computer networking enables the organizations to communicate and share their ideas in a more convenient and cost effective way. On the other hand, it is also observed that, organizations and businesses face various risks and vulnerabilities regarding the integrity of their computer networks. In this scenario, it is considered as the core responsibilities of the organizations and businesses to ensure the integrity and security of their network and information by introducing and implementing procedures and techniques. This may greatly help them in maintaining and securing their networks (Paquet, 2013).

The proceeding paper incorporates the back ground of the business which is going to launch their medium sized food store in the town. This food store is seeking to implement a computer network within their business procedures, as it may help in executing their operations in a more convenient way. Therefore, this study incorporates a general computer networking architecture for the business. Furthermore, some of the security procedures are also described in this study. These procedures may help in securing and maintaining the integrity of the networks.

Brief Over View of the Organization

BRC foods is one of the newest and recently established food chain of the town. This food store has to communicate its strategies and work procedures to its employees. In this scenario, they often find difficulty in communicating with large number of employees. Therefore, the management of an organization is seeking to introduce and implement a computer networking system, as it may help them in conveying the information to the employees. Furthermore, this computer network may also help them in communicating and spreading their word to the entire community. This phenomenon may greatly help them in enhancing and improving their reputation in the targeted market.

General Computer Network for BRC Foods

A computer network is nothing more than the telecommunication network that incorporates various computer systems that are connected with each other as well as with other peripheral devices. It is observed that, computer network, enables the organizations and businesses to share or exchange their information with large number of people. In computer networking, the computers and other resources, like peripherals, are interconnected with each other by using cables or wires (Eason, 2008)..

In the given case of BRC foods, computer network may greatly help an organization in communicating with each other. The presented architecture for BRC foods is incorporated in the proceeding study. The presented architecture demonstrates various components and features. These features may play a vital role in the development of computer network architecture. These components may include cables, connectors, network interface cards, terminal computer, server computer, routers and switches (Paquet, 2013). All these components may play an efficient role in ...
